The Confessor Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C]
[Cm][C]

[Verse 1]
If [C]you look at your reflection
at the bottom of the well
What you see is only on the surface
When you try to see the meaning,
hidden underneath
The measure of the depth
can be deceiving

[Verse 2]
The bottom has a rocky reputation
[C]
You can feel it in the distance
the deeper down
You stare
From up above it's hard to see
But you know when you're there
On the bottom words are shallow
The surface talk is cheap
You can only judge the distance
by the company you keep

[Interlude 1]
In the eyes of the confessor
[C][D]

[Verse 3]
In the [D]eyes of the con[C]fessor
[D]There's no place you can hid[C]e[D]
You can't hide [D]from the [D]eyes
(of the confessor)
Don't you [D]even try
In the eyes of the confessor
You can't tell a lie
You cannot tell a lie (to the confessor)
Strip you down to size
Naked as the day that you were born
Naked as the day that you [G]were[F][D][F][G][C][G][F][D]

[Verse 4]
Take all the trau[G]ma,
drama, comments
[Gm]The guilt and doubt [G]and shame
[Gsus4]The what [G]if's and if only'[Gsus4]s
[C]The [Gm]shackles and the [Gsus4]chain s
[C]The[G] violence and aggression
The [C]pet[Gsus4]tiness and scorn
The [G]jealousy [Gm]and hat[G]red
The [Gsus4]tempest and disc[G]ord
And give it [D]up
